~- p ge four =< the Western Allies have beeu rather voeal in their protest agaiast the maintenance of the censorship, the Sovizts have taken preceutionary measures against the abolition of this servkzee if it should b made. They have first of all established an ultrafiodern, film photostatie copying office at the Sfdbahnhof, in which letters can be photigraphed at a very fast rate, without this being necessarily shown. At present this office is uostly active in making photostats of all letters with economic contents, patents, blueprinte etc. For the teleshone end telegraph services a modern wire-tapping servie was established on the Schillerplatze Finally the nost interesting feature is a new motorizeé wire=re coréer, which csn be branched on agy telephome line ony place add records thee tke conversations. These recor’ers ure in the had of the Red Arny and are being broadly tested on the main lines between Vienna end the Weste At nresent this sew machine is only being tested.
